SURPRISE!!!!

Surprise!  For those of you who do not already know the Watson family is growing again!  We are almost 17 weeks pregnant and due September 25th.  To say I'm anxious to find out what we are having is an understatement.  This pregnancy has been different in a lot of ways.  One being.....for the first 11 weeks I was SICK AS A DOG from morning till night.  Thank goodness for my wonderful husband who basically took over for 2 months!  Will we finally get our girl or be adding to our future baseball team????  We find out May 2! 

Happy Easter 2012

Soccer Time!!!

We decided to put Baker in Spring soccer this year.  We are on a team with 5 of our sweet friends so it is fun for both the kids and their parents! =)  So far we are not off to the best start (understatement)!  Baker is not a huge fan!  The other kids at least go after the ball.....Baker does when he feels like it!  At least he looks cute right.  We are working on it!  This kills his athletic daddy!!!

 I know he looks like an all star in this picture!  Don't be deceived! =)
 One sweet team!!!
 This is probably a more accurate picture of how Baker feels about soccer!

Our Caleb Burton

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY CALEB!!!!

I can't believe my BABY is 3!!!!  How did that happen?  Where have the years gone?  He has brought so much joy, laughter, and smiles to our life.  We are so very thankful for the gift of Caleb!  Here are just a few pictures of Caleb's favorite facial expression!  You can see why he is so dearly loved!

Mule Day 2012

Caleb's birthday always falls at a tough time of year.  It is always in the middle of Spring Break, Mule Day, and/or Easter.  The poor child has not even had a proper birthday party yet.  With invitations out and big plans to remedy the problem this year.....every RSVP came back no.  It's just a busy time for everyone.  It's always hard to explain without seeing for yourself, but Mule Day is a big deal in our household.  My brother has made it a big deal.  For about 8 years we have held a big party on the farm on this weekend and the same friends of Burton's have attended for the past 8 years (give or take a few).  Caleb's birthday fell on Mule Day this year so we turned his birthday into a Mule Day party!  He had a great day...as did all...and we do hope to have him a little get together with his friends in the next couple of weeks!

At the Parade...



 "What....I'm three!"


 "Who needs a fork????"
 Caleb's face cracks me up!!!  He was showing no mercy to the punching bag!
 Baker really wanted to take the cow skull home!
 Hanging at the farm...only half of the campsite!
The Bunny came to see me!

Art Show at School

Next year the boys will be at a different school....and one of the things that make me the saddest is losing the yearly Art Show!  Their school goes all out every Spring with floor to ceiling art scenes.  The kids work for weeks preparing their work.  Baker and Caleb loved showing off their projects.  Here are just a few of what they created!  Every year I wish we had taken far away pictures just to capture how big a deal the art scenes are....and every year I forget.  I guess the boy's with their art really is the most important!!! =)





Chattanooga Aquarium

We took a weekend trip to Chattanooga to visit friends and take the kids to the Aquarium.  They had a great time!
 The boys pet a snake first thing!


 So glad Dee came with us!

 Petting sting rays!
